Abstract [en]

This commentary explores the untapped potential of incorporating Swedish fika into culinary culture and gastronomy tourism, emphasizing its significance in destination branding and product value offerings. It integrates the social, temporal, spatial, and symbolic aspects of Swedish fika from a multidisciplinary perspective, to provide a holistic view that can guide the exploration of culinary culture and daily practices into enhancing perceived values across offerings. Described as a national interest, Swedish fika is deeply intertwined with values of democracy, open atmospheres, and agenda-free meetings, creating positive associations in branding.
